WE DID IT

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!
We are so incredibly lucky to have our goal not only reached but exceeded all the way to $830 worth of your backing and support! We wanted to take a moment to say thank you to all of the amazing support, comments and suggestions we received from our backers. It is wonderful to know that a whole community of online, like-minded people were willing to get behind my project and help put some legs under our efforts. 
With the funding we received and the support we are still receiving, we are excited to say that we will be able to start production within the next 7 business days and hope to be shipping product to your door within the next 10 business days! We are very excited and extremely grateful for you and your support! Cheers to an exciting KICKSTARTER campaign!

100% FUNDED !!!!

Well... we did it! We got 100% funded on November 28th. It was been a lot of fun to watch funding come in a true "crowdsource" platform. Some funding has come from all corners of the country and even throughout the globe.

We thought the funding would be largely accomplished in part by family and friends, and while we did receive a significant pledge from family and friends, it was the steady trickle of other individuals near and far that helped us reach the goal.

As of today we have 8 days left until the project reaches completion. We currently sit at exactly 50 pledgers at $604. Our goal was $500 and we are super excited to have reached it but we have a question on the back of our minds... would it be possible to reach $750? or even $1000? It would make our experience that much better and help to launch Tanners business with a little more backing.

If you are thinking about backing his project, now is the time to step in and make it happen!

One last final push for the final week of our Kickstarter project. Jump on board and help us spread the word for doubling our goal in 7 days!

Thank you for all of the wonderful comments and showing your support.

Here is to Card Belt by Tanner Emett!

KICKSTARTER VIDEO IS READY!!!!

Check out the sweet video we had made on fiverr.com!

Card Belt: The Idea Phase

Tanner has a great idea to replace the "funny" rubber band I use to keep track of my credit and debit cards when traveling. He calls it his card belt and with come clever creativity he gave me what I now carry around everywhere I go.

I actually use and like it because it is small and simple and extremely easy to start using. It holds up well as I have traveled with it across the US from New York to Arizona and many places in between. I like to have my payment cards easily accessible for the gas pump, dinner appointments and any other time! My wallet was too big to put in my dress slacks when going to meetings and I started using a rubber band to just carry my ID, two credit cards and a debit card. I eventually started carrying the gas card, Costco card and a little cash all in the Card Belt. My wallet still goes with me out of town, but is now safely zipped away in my bag or brief case.

Since it is being used everyday and sits in my front pocket everyday I figured it would start to tear apart or break down. Just the opposite has happened. I have shocked at how well it holds together and has not had any "structural issues" to speak of. The size is perfect and it looks professional when I pull it out at a sales lunch or business meeting. 

I am impressed with Tanner and his creativity. I encourage his entrepreneurial spirit and support his efforts to make his first "business" successful. We are going to put his project on Kickstarter and try to raise funds to create more and spread the word. Check it out on Kickstarter and show some support!!
